Abstract

ASDENIC is an organization that partners with local farmers and citizens in northern Nicaragua to provide resources and information to ensure the safety of residents and optimize agricultural techniques. Currently, a singular, localized weather station collects useful information on patterns that can be used for indicators, yet the data requires manual processing and there is not a system in place to report the findings. The current method of information transfer is in person during weekly meetings which can be ineffective and inconsistent.

In continuation of a previous project focused on sharing water quality information, our mobile application acts as a platform for leaders to share valuable weather indicators with members of the community in real time instead of on a weekly basis. This allows community leaders to disseminate all relevant information with the community in a reliable and easy-to-digest manner. As an additional benefit, providing accessible information to community members reduces the need for large group gatherings, especially relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic.
